Gear Beast Running Water Bottle - 23 oz Reusable, Portable Water Bottle for Running, Walking, Hiking, Gym and Travel w/Zippered Phone Holder

I'm a runner and needed a water pack that holds a bigger phone. My previous handheld water packs didn't fit my new Galaxy S22 Ultra. Ordered this on Sunday. Received it the next day. Ran 3 miles with it today. Works like a charm. Switched out the bottle formy Nathan bottle since I like that fit better. Plenty of room for gels chews and a car key if needed. I recommend!

This is my first bottle holder and I love it because it’s so easy to use while walking. The clear window is great for use of my running app, the water bottle is huge compared to others, great storage for keys and some cash and my ID card also, and it just fits in your hand perfectly! I’ve had several fellow runners ask me about the brand. Love it!

Overall, I really like this water bottle/ pouch. It's lightweight, and it allows me to carry water and phone and a few odds and ends easily and comfortably while I exercise. I chose this particular item because I have an iPhone 7 Plus and this was the only pouch I could find that would accommodate a larger sized phone. The pouch is nice because in addition to holding my phone, there are a few slots for things like ID, credit card or insurance card, cash, etc. I also fit in a tube of lip balm and an individually wrapped hand wipe. I think a granola or energy bar would also fit if it was one on the thin side. It has a clear plastic cover that allows you to use the phone's touch screen without removing it from the pouch. It can't read my fingerprint to unlock the phone through the plastic, but I can type in my PIN and use the screen that way. I also like that it protects my phone in case I drop it on the pavement. The water bottle holds a decent amount and the cap fits well- no leaks. And the price is pretty decent compared to some other brands I looked at.Other reviewers have mentioned the uselessness of the strap adjustor, and I agree with them. If you want a water bottle pouch that you can strap to your hand and carry in the "go" position without having to continually grasp it, this might not be the water bottle pouch for you. I'm a walker, not a runner, and for me it's no big deal to carry the pouch dangling from my hand. I do think that the strap is probably modifiable if you're willing to try. A safety pin maybe, or some velcro if you felt like making a real effort. Anyway, the strap is not a deal breaker for me, but it's definitely something people should be aware of before they make their decision. Personally, I'm happy with my purchase and would buy this item again.

Bottle not impressive but different sizes of Amphipod bottles fit fine. Like the card holder and would have to take out the phone to access it- no big deal. Plenty of room for my iPhone 12 Max with a Pop Socket. However, the window is too small. I could not access the bottom to swipe up or the top. With bigger window I would buy another in a heartbeat, but this one got returned.

I really like this handheld running water bottle phone holder thing.It’s pretty comfortable in my hand while running. I can tighten it up to where I need it. I read that some struggle with this as they have small hands. I have medium to large hands and have no issue.The water bottle is thin and light weight. Some have said it’s cheaply made. Not sure I agree. While it isn’t the best quality in the world, it seems pretty solid to me. Mine has not leaked a drop. I can even run with the spout open and it hasn’t ever splashed out. I think it’s thin on purpose - to save weight. And if you don’t like the bottle, others will fit in it’s place.The unit is lightweight and appears to be good quality.My hand used to hurt after holding my phone on a run...not any more! And now I can carry water and my phone with one hand! Very important since it’s been in the 100’s here in Phoenix.I’m a fan!

I love the bottle and how much water it holds, the sling is a bit big for my linking and I have to keep tightening up the strap on my hand, but I've gotten used to it and it works well when I run longer distances.

i like the feature for the phone and that is 23 oz,

I used to have a Nathan water bottle that I loved, but the pouch was not big enough for my phone (Samsung Galaxy S5) and work badge. The Gear Best has tons of room to fit all I have and then some, but the ergonomics don't feel quite right to me. I struggle to find a grip that feels right, and my fingers keep wanting to curl around the body and end up cramped. Lately I've found it most comfortable to wrap my hand just around the strap and let the bottle kind of slosh around, but I do notice the strap not staying at the same length adjustment, so I have to adjust every 10 minutes or so. I do like that the pouch slides on and off easily when needed so the bottle can fit in my car console.

No major gripes. I swapped out the bottle for another larger bottle. Has a comfortable grip. Has multiple slots for cards and you can operate your touchscreen through the plastic.

It works with alternative bottles and fits a Samsung Galaxy S8 with extra space. Touch screen works through the case and it keeps the phone dry from splatters.

Perfect for the gym while using my wireless headphones, I no longer have to stick my phone in my pants or sports bra😖 the phone case is large (too big for my Samsung s7 but gives me room to upgrade I guess, however due to the phone being too small I wont be texting much while using it.The only thing I really dislike is the random strap on the handle, maybe I just hsvebt figured out the use for it?

As title (wrist to the tip of my middle finger is 17cm). Also if you do not have a strong wrist, the weight of the water and phone on the same hand might be a bit heavy during jogging, but after a while, I kind of build up some muscle for my wrist. So that's a pro : )

The water bottle is too big making it heavier than I expected but just replaced it with another but super comfortable to use
